The video interview platform that shows its work

A video interview platform is software that lets candidates record interview responses and lets hiring teams review them. Most platforms split into two flavors: live (synchronous, like Zoom) and one-way (asynchronous, where candidates record on their own time). A modern video interview platform adds structured scoring, AI summaries, and highlight clips on top of the recordings so you're not watching every full response. Truffle focuses on one-way video interviews and layers AI Match scoring, Candidate Shorts, and team scorecards on top.

Most video interview platforms either collect recordings and make you watch them all, or use AI to decide who advances without showing the reasoning. Truffle does neither. AI scores every response against the rubric you set during intake, shows which criteria the candidate aligned with, and surfaces 30-second Candidate Shorts with reasoning on why each clip was selected. You see the evidence. You make the call.

Yes. Candidates record from any modern browser on any device. No app download, no account creation, no login. The interface is built for mobile first, so phones and tablets work as smoothly as laptops. Most candidates finish in 10 to 15 minutes.

During setup, you answer two intake questions: what success looks like in the first six months, and what helps people thrive on your team. Combined with your screening questions, that becomes the rubric. After each candidate completes the interview, AI transcribes the responses, scores them against every criterion, and shows you which parts of the rubric each candidate aligned with. Every score has a reason attached. You can see the reasoning in one click.

One-way interview software is a subset of the broader video interview platform category. Video interview platforms can include live interviews, scheduling, assessments, or AI scoring. One-way interview software specifically lets candidates record responses asynchronously without a live interviewer. Truffle is a video interview platform built around one-way interviews, with AI analysis, assessments, and resume screening layered on.

Yes. Each screening method works independently. Most teams start with one-way video interviews and see results immediately. When you're ready for deeper signal you can add talent assessments or resume screening to the same candidate profile. Nothing forces you to use all three.

Self-Serve is $149 per month, or $99 per month billed annually. That includes 150 candidate screenings per month, unlimited positions, unlimited team members, AI Match scores, Candidate Shorts, AI Summaries, full transcripts, and custom branding. Enterprise teams with higher volume can use the Custom plan. No contracts, no cancellation fees, 7-day free trial with no credit card required. See pricing.

About three minutes. Paste your job description, accept or edit AI-suggested questions, add your branding, and share the Position Link. No implementation project, no vendor onboarding, no IT involvement. Most teams go live on day one.

No. Truffle replaces the first-round phone screen, not the final live conversation. Most teams use video interviews to decide who's worth a live interview in the first place. You still meet your finalists. You just meet far fewer people who shouldn't have made it that far.

Live video interviews are scheduled calls where both sides are on camera at the same time, like a Zoom interview. One-way video interviews let candidates record responses asynchronously on their own time, and your team reviews the recordings later. Live interviews are best for final-round conversations where nuance and follow-ups matter. One-way interviews are built for the first round, where you need to evaluate many candidates quickly without coordinating schedules. Truffle focuses on one-way video interviews because that's where time savings and structure compound.

Video interviews are far more effective than resume review for signals that don't live on paper: how someone communicates, how they think through a question, and whether they actually care about the role. A resume can't show you that. A phone screen can, but at 45 minutes per call you run out of hours before you run out of candidates. A structured video interview with AI-scored responses closes the gap. You see every candidate on camera, consistently, and spend your live time only on the ones who earned it.

Fair and transparent are the things to optimize for, not "unbiased." Truffle's AI doesn't decide who advances. It scores every response against the criteria you define during intake, applies the same standard to every candidate, and shows you exactly which parts of the rubric drove the score. You see the reasoning. You make the call. Every candidate gets the same structured evaluation. That's a more consistent bar than an overworked recruiter with 20 phone screens on the calendar.
